Boston, July 21.-The announcement of

Sunday has created great sensation. As
only 100000 people can be reached on the
DAY OF publication in New England, while

GLOBE claims that, in proportion to popula-

Healthy Hogs.

Dalry refuse makes very nutritious
food for young swine. Summer stock
running at large may be fed freely with
sour milk without whey, and they will
generally provide themselves with what
ever Is necessary to modify the effects of
the feeding. But if they are confined in
pen they will suffer from acidity of the
stomach, an ailment which hogs are much
subject to, unless care is taken to furnish
the necessary correction. A little pow
dered chalk mixed with the food is recon-
mended for this purpose, or almost any
alkaline substance occasionally will an
sIer.
Hogs having very thick skins are liable
to become feverish and diseased by the
closing of the pores, and this produces
ether diseases. Sulphur tends to cool
and purify the blood and TO keep open
the pores of the skin, and should be fire.
quently given. When the skin is dry aud
the sulphur does not afford relief, little
anthony will prove effectual. When at
pasture the hog will frequently be seen
helping himself to charcoal. When con-
fined in a pen, a separate box or tricot
should be kept supplied with coal ashes
and salt.
Some have the name of being filthy,
but in this are slsndered. No brute will
take more pains TO keep his bed clean
than the hog. When he walIows in the
mire, its to relieve feverish skin, result
ing from want of those substances
which, taken inward,y, would keep his
hide in good condition and which he
would take without urging if he could
find them. In brief, the hog is very
sensible animal in his ways, and when
confined, his master should supply his
wants.

Water in Butter
Ny,,ar.;nun rie+


While salt Will readily dissolve at 500
1T is not so easy to get the butter free
from the surplus water, and it is by this
needless water that much injury is done
to butter. Fiftyfve degrees would be
better, and salt the butter at 600. Water
is great solvent of caseine and sugar
traces of which will be found in all butter
however well worke d-but the more
water remaining after working over, the
greater chemical action, and acting upon
the minute particles of curd or cheese,
it becomes rancid by weu-knowu chemi-
cal action. Butter should not contain
more water than is necessary to dissolve
what salt it will retain in the form of
brine, and II per cent. seems to be about
the amount. More water than this di-
lutes the brine, and defeats by so much
the object of the use of salt in butter-to
preserve the caselne from chemical
change-nor can this be accomplished
save in temperature below 500. In the
usual creamery butter, and all that made
by cold setting, the maker often unin-
tentionally leaves more than 20 per cent.
of water in butter, not understanding
that butter made from cream slightly
acid retains more moisture than that
made from sourer cream. The souring
breaks up the texture of the cream and
butter separates better from the butter
milk. Then all the butter maker need to
30 is to churn the ripened cream at a
lower temperature than is needed for
sour, to use salt each time in Washing it
free from buttermilk, and when the reg
ulation amount of salt is used to.sea-
son the butter let 1t desolve, and then by
working and packing, know that the
butter is free from any excess of water
above IA per cent. Then if kept below
500 and away from the influence of the
air, butter mads from soured milk must
keep we'll.

Fall Rye A Profitable Crop.

We do not advise fall blowing under all
circumstances, for there are many pieces
of ground which viii only be damaged by
washing or perhaps blowing. But there

cases land that washes or catches the wind
is entirely safe if so~ed during this
month to rye, which springs up sufficient

natural cover all winter.
To farms impoverished by constantly
taking of without putting back, fall pillow
ing and the sowing of rye to be turned
under in the spring, and followed by peas
or other leguminous crops, is an inesti-
mable boon, and the farmer with poor
lands land who has not SUCH who rests
on his oars now without preparing at
least an acre in this way, is foolish. to say
the least; is evidently willing to allow the
grip of poverty to tighten about his

rye is beginning to head. and then turned

the decaying peas will thrive, and the

crop of rye will give q Foundation for

once a qualification and profit to the
owner. Sow all the rye possible this fall

He Got Even With the Mate.
st, Joseph's Gazstte

An old citizen, a gentleman of high
social and official standing in st. Joseph,
tells a story of the famous Missouri Gov
ernor, Bob Stewart, which, true to the
letter, proves that truth is stranger than
fiction:
II was coming up the Missouri River
when was boy" said the Ex-Governor,
"and 1 was working my way up on a
steamboat. At point where We had to
wood up l didn't carry as big load as
some of the rOustabouts, nor move with
that agility that the others did, for 1 was
not strong, and had Seen tenderly raised
The mate became enraged at my slow
movements on the gangplank, and he
gave me kick and sent me ashore, and
confi.cated my buffalo robe as payment
for my passage to that point. 1 never
saw that mate again until | had been in
augurated as Governor of this great com
monwealth of Missouri.
zone day wandering through the wards
and districts of the Penitentiary l saw
that mate, working at a forge. He had
been sent there for killing in passion,
a man under his command. l know him
instantly, and / directed the Warden to
send the man to the Guhernatorial Man
sion in the garb of gentleman. When
the man arrived l took him into my pri-
vate Office and asked aim if he recog-
nized me. He replied that he did. Said
/, do you remember one time at such and
such place, of kicking a boy and send
ing him ashore, who had been working in
your gang?
The man said, No, don't remainder
it, but it is very likely that did it.
"'Well,' says 1, 4 am that boy, AID
here is your pardon. l always thought l
would get even with you
"The tears came to the old mans eyes,
and he said, well, Governor, to be
mate in those days man had to be
dog
You played well your part / said.
Now leave here, and don't let me see you
again.
Gas he made his exit gave him an
abls-bodied kick, and little Bob Stewart
had got even with the big steamboat
mate
Sounds like romance, don't It? Yes
But every word is true, 1 need barely say,
sir"

Allegheny mountains can not become
commercial" because there Is no possibls
outlet to the sea for their products. These
fountains, his Lordship declared, we're
: barrier to prosperity that could never
DO overcome
IL he could return from his grave NOW
start in Pullman ear from Philadelph;a
travel over the Alieghanies at . snesa
which would make each particular hair
stand on end, and so for several DAYS and
nights at the same rate of speed throurh
countless villages, towns and crowded
cities, through what was in his day an
almost impenetrable forest, over the
prairies, OF which he never dreamed, and
then over the Rockies, TO find an immense
population on the Pacific coast he would
PROBABLY entertain as slender an opinion
OF MS prophetic powers as We do,
IL ne had been told, after the publica.
tion of his book, that this great wilder
ness, which ne believed to be barrier TO
our western advance. would be changed
INTO heids of grain upon which English
lords and English worsmen would larvley
depend Tor their daily bread that the
MISSISSIPPI river in the course of threa
generations, would flow through the geo
graphical center of republic plumber
ing 100000 people, and that the whole
continent of Europe would be yearly de-
pendant upon the abundance of
our crops, his Lordshi p would have look
ed upon the speaker as a fanatic or mad
man.
At the time when Lord Sheffield made
his lugu5rious prop hscy the total area
of the United States was S27.S4t square
miles. In 1908, the Province of Louisi-
ana was ceded, containing an area of l.
27l,93l square miles, and extending north
ward FROM the mouths of the Mississippi
to the British possessions and westward
to :he Pacific ocean. Ia 1919 we acquired
Florida, 59,26S square miles; in lS45.
Texas, containing &c. 1888 square miles;
In 1913, the first Mexican cession of 545.-
1873 square miles was made; in 1858. a
second Mexican oession of 1886 square
miles, and lastly, in 1867 the Russian
cession of Alaska containing 577. $50
square miles. This makes the total area
OF the United States S,603,SSi square
miles, or more than four times what it
was in 1897.
The present size of the Republic and
our exhaustless material resources en-
phasize our responsibilities and duties as
American citizens.
